Letters: Keep the U.S. out of the Syrian civil war

Obama seems intent on getting involved with the civil war in Syria. That would be a huge mistake. How many times does history have to repeat itself? The U.S. getting involved there is a lose-lose gamble. It is none of our business which side is right or which side is using gas. It's their civil war, NOT ours. And neither side likes us. We should offer only medical aid to both sides. No guns, no ammunition, no monetary support, no moral support and, for sure, NO TROOPS. The last thing the U.S. economy needs is to finance another war that we can't afford and only get another black eye over, regardless who wins.

Free Press has not covered Benghazi scandal as it should

With all the testimony and possible ramifications of what is being discovered yesterday and today on Capital Hill - and you have nothing in the paper regarding this? Do you seriously wonder why your sales are down? I was planning on purchasing a paper today but decided not to - you're not covering the news.

Benghazi blunders have cost U.S., Obama their reputations

I have been watching closely as the truth behind the Benghazi tragedy is slowly pried from under the wreckage and lies. As a Canadian, I am concerned because the integrity and projected image of your presidential administration affects us all.

It is ironic that the mother of one of the victims, Sean Smith, cannot get answers and her requests appear to be inconvenient for the State Department. The U.S. mainstream media are obsessed with their navels as they dwell incessantly over the Jodi Arias case and now the Cleveland one. They have sunk to the depths of tabloid coverage while the U.S. administration shows signs of having lost its bearings. This is no longer the America I used to admire.
